Nationality Of Fishermen.

The story that the fishery business was oper-
ated largely in Massachusett Is by foreigners is
shown to be wrong by the statistics that will
shortly appear in the census Of 1SS5, and which
have been published In the Boston Traveller:
OF the 5,435 persons employed in this III
dustry in the State, II ,743 are resident fisher
men, 993 are nonresident, 4,2 are shore labor
crs, 149 factory laborers and l:'S packers.
The nationalities of the resident fishermen
are as follows: American, 1913; English. 50 !;
Irish, 547; Canadian, 1856; Spanish. .; French.
1888; Portuguese. 10; Swedish, 42l; German.
81; Greek, 2, and unknown. 76S.

2, Spanish; 56, French; COL. Portuguese; 3,
Italians 9S Swedish; 8, Germans 3, Chilians !;
&, Malay and 81 unknown.
The nationalities of the shore laborcrs were ::

2, and Portuguese, IS.
OF the factory hands, 140 were American. )
Irish and Canadian.
OF the packers, 120 were American and Is

This Is the first time that a census of the
nationality of the fishermen has been taken,

care was taken in preparing this portion of the
statistics.

The Prohibition Decision.

1t is said that the decision of the United
States supreme court in the Kansas eases. SliS-
tanning the State prohibitory laws under the
police power of the States, foreshadows the
decision in the Maine case, when it gets to
court. suStainin" the power of the State to
prohibit the sale of imported liquors. Port
land Express.
The decision of the United States Supreme
Court on the Kansas prohibition cases is the
most important judicial triumph which the
cause has won. Had the Court decided that
compensation must be made to the interests
injured by the adoption of prohibition it
would have been fatal to the prohbitory move
ment in most instances. as few States would
embark upon Il policy cntailing such enormous
expense. Boston journal.
The supreme court at Washington has dccd-
ed. in a Kansas ease, so far as can be made out
from newspaper reports, that State may not
only forbid the manufacture and sale of intoxi-
cants within its OWE territory, but may also
prohibit the manufacture for export and may
seize and destroy liquors manufactured.
This decision is regarded as foreshadowing an
equally radical opinion. when the Maine case,
concerning imported liquors. comes before the
court. Portland Advertiser.
The decision of the United States Supreme
Court in the Kansas Prohibition eases is of
great Importance. 1t has long been question
IN controversy whether. in States that had
adopted prohibition. compensation was not due
to the owners of property, such as breweries
and distilleries, which could not readily be
used for other purposes, and consequently had
suffered great depreciation in value. The
court holds that such prohibition is within
"the police power" of the State, and so is not
repugnant to the Constitution, which forbidS
the taking of property for public use without
compensation and without due process of law.
The property is not taken. The State has sim
ply declared that the making of liquor for 9TH
purposes is injurious to the welfare of the peo
pie, and must be prohibited. The right of the
people, speaking through their legislative rep
resentatiyes, to forbid the use of property in
such way as to affect the community, as they
believe, injuriously, is explicitly upheld by the
court. New York Tribune.

The Portland Press Is one of the best daily

The History of the Caroline Miller.

The steamer Caroline Miller, which has taken
the place of the Lucy p. Miller on the route be
tween Bangor, Belfast, RoCkland and New York,
has an unusual history. 1t appears that She was
formerly the British steamer Dawn, which WAS
wrecked on the IIog-Sty Reef, forty miles out from
the Bahama Islands, West Indies, during the
month of June lS>4, and abandoned by her owners.
Her insurers sold the wreck the same month to j.
Il. Morse and NJ. Il. Barber residents of Inagua,
British West Indies, and her British register was
taken up and cancelled by the British authorities.
Fourteen months after the wreck occurred, Capt.
+. {. Miller, an American citizen and resident of
Baltimore, Md, bought the wreck from Morse and
Barber for $500, and at great trouble and expense
got it afoat and towed it to Baltimore, where he
substantially rebuilt her at cost to him of about
$4,000. Upon Capt. Miller's application to the
collector of the port for register it was found
that the wreck not having been on American shore,
he could not be granted register save by special
act of Congress, and he Immediately had bill In
troduced granting him the right to fly the Ameri,
can flag. 1t was passed some two years ago after
considerable trouble. Our general commercial laws
